I'm So Happy

I came home from a play group to find the best message ever on my machine. One of the Stake Presidency members was at camp last night and his wife was talking with the girls and Bailey searched her out and asked her to bring me a note home. I was so thrilled. She wanted me to know she was doing great. She said that she has seen deer and chipmunks and that she asked the camp director how often they change the ropes on the rock climbing rope (every 800 hours, just like they should, boy I have her trained well!) She misses me but is having a great time. Isn't that great!!! She misses me!!!!! I love being a mom!!!!!

AND as if that isn't enough, Smiths is having a great sale on cereal!

I survived

I promise this is the last post about the birthday, (for a couple of weeks then I can be sad about Zach's). Bailey made Jacob this crown for for his big celebration. Speaking of Bailey, she leaves tomorrow for girls camp. I have tried bribing, I have tried to ground her but she just can't seem to do anything wrong! I have even tried to guilt her, which I know is a bad mothering technique but you can't blame me for trying. At all the pre camp hikes she was a billy goat, the leaders thought we must be a family that hikes a lot. Apparently they don't know us well. I am not worried about her making bad decisions. She is just as paranoid as me and has been trained well. But can't help but think that my heart will break without her here to tell me she loves me 20 times before bed.
